Skelton Sr Son •t West End Bridge—WALKERTON drubbing, but considering the edge in' speed, size and experience, the Tars had over the Maitlands, it is a wond er the margin wasn’t bigger. Bill Lepard, in the local net, let several "soft” ones in, but give the kid credit, it was his first game and, only the third time he has had the big pads on. The boy did a good job on the harder shots, but inexperience in clearing his stops proved fatal. A very noticeable weakness in get ting the puck-out of their own goal zone was the stumbling block to the local kids, but this can and should be remedied. In fact, even in the last period the kids were doing this im portant chore in much better fashion. As said before the Maitlands lacked speed to cope with the fast Tars, on the attack. However, in all fairness it must be said the Sailors were the best junior club to appear good many years and will junior club in this section do’any night. Their team defense work were all you could ask at this stage of the young season. For the local boys the young kid line of the two Biggs boys and Bak er or Hamilton, played the best and most consistent hockey, Little Dar rel Biggs the favour cause of h very fine scored the nice play with his brother, Perce, and just skinned the goal post on a very nice play in the second period. Jack Richardson got the other goal on a nice pass from Harry Posliff in the third period, Harry, by*the way, was l chosen by the kids as their captain for the season. Richardson was the best of the defense-men and looked vastly improved in the final period over the two previous sessions. Stew art Forsyth, when he gets over his Jirst awkwardness with his stick, will prove a good player too before the season is over, wfe believe. The Maitlands play an exhibition game in Clinton Thursday and sev eral new' kids will be taken along and given a thorough trial. Some of these spare kids are just as good as those that performed Monday night and will be given a fair chance to make good. The fans should bear in mind that these kids are being groomed for future years and not be too critical, of them now. , * • *. * Forget It, Kids!

Dear Editor: No news from Huron has touched me more than the recent reports of three deaths in the neighborhood of Belgrave: Joe Brandon, Matt, Fergu son and David Dunbar. It seems to the writer that we too readily' "let the rud,e, forefathers of the hamlet sleep”, whereas we awak ens others of fame by glowing biog raphies. I. feel it a duty to ask for a little of your space, Those three men who were laid to rest within a few days of one anoth er were sons of worthy parents close ly connected in the neighborhood, were young men of influence when I was a boy and all were successful men. James Ferguson and Joseph Dunbar, two of the fathers, were eld ers in the Presbyterian Church and Joe Brandon belonged to one of the prominent families in the Methodist Church. I had the privilege of hav ing Mr. Dunbar as a Sunday School teacher and later of being in a class taught by Mr. Ferguson. Boys are usually impressed by youth the next grade older and that is how the writer has so many mem ories of the three referred to. Dave, as we always called him, gave me a place in the baseball team which prac tised on his father’s field' and won a notable victory over Marnoch club at the picnic. He was a winner too as a young farmer an'd all along the way was successful. Matt, was a fine look ing young man, the mystery being that he never married. Probably there hangs a tale of-a lonely heart. A worthy helpmate was needed, we think, to develop the true fibres in his character, which were indeed very promising. Joe Brandon early pro fessed conversion and his "light was on a candlestick” leading other young souls on the bright road of life. I owe him much although we belonged to different'churches. ■> ■ ' Will you therefore publish these few lines. The fine old homes in Huron which sent these men forth might well be recalled. The three comrades in youth were types of Can- . ada’s best and in the ripe old age they fell together by the great reaper. Yours sincerely, Austin L. Budge. Hamilton, Ont.

Sometimes we have I wondered just where London came in. I Since Italy and Germany are now both out of the League of Nations or on their way out, andt since Brit ain, France and Russia still render lip-scrvice to Geneva, London is for the time being in the Paris-Moscow axis, but the Rothmcre press and the Anglo-German fellowship are leaving no stone unturned to creat a Berlin- London axis. Their propaganda fav ours the jcttisonpof the League of Na tions, the rcturp to a system of al liances based 6n national interests, the safeguarding of the lines of em pire by an agreement whereby Ger many will be given a free hand in Eastern Europe, if she will leave us alone on the high seas, and a recog nition of Realpolitik as opposed to Wilsonian idealism.

He minimizes the im portance of such problems as Hitler’s cruel treatment of the Jews and seems quite unfamiliar with the more subtle factors in the opposition of both Catholic and Evangelical churches to the Hitler regime. In general, he ad-1 mires everything that Hitler’s govern-j ment has done and compares their )’ achievements with the meagre efforts ! cratic countries is ]jke that be±ween of the United Kingdom, to act with a professional and an amateur foot equal effectiveness. , bajj The amateurs can please Undoubtedly, the Hitler regime, ’ themselves; but the professionals like the Communist regime in Rus-. have the satisfaction of playing bet- sia, has worked some miracles, and; ter football”. Again, to use the words we need to understand its good points.‘ and to study its success • dispassion-[ ately. We can therefore learn a great j deal in this book if we read it criti- I cally and not be carried away by the | author’s prejudices. Perhaps, the best! chapter is that on “The Total State” I in which he attributes the resurrec-1 tion qf Germany to the "combination of economics methods with social service”. In Canada, our governments vacillate between economic methods of creating wealth and alleged social service methods of dissipating wealth, and it often seems that more atten tion is devoted to wealth dissipation than to wealth-creation. Only as we See the problem , of relief in relation to the question of wealth-creation and take steps to safeguard the wealth already accumulated and to circum vent horrible losses in the future through forest-fires, land-erosion, etc. will we be able to approximate under our system of freedom what the dic tatorial regimes have apparently suc ceeded in doing at the price of free dom. Mr. Hillson is obviously and bit terly anti-French, and if a Berlin- London axis is to be prevented, the Paris government will do well to en courage a little more understanding of British problems among the French people, for there is some trtith in. the author’s statement that “when ever the..British ..Governrneut begins, to think of the British people at the ’ ■expense of the French, the French press arises in fury and accuses us of the basest treachery”. Certainly, the main purpose of the British Gov- j ernment is not to protect France, and if France does not learn to under stand that fact, she may force Britain directly into the arms of Germany. In this connection, it must be rememb ered that Britons have perhaps more in common with Germans than with the French, although, on the other hand, France and Britain, being both “imperial’’ powers, may inevitably be bound more closely together against the encroachments of “hungry” na tions. is delicious What is more important — both | have challenged democracy and done | away with the crudities of the multi- j party system which is the bane of de- j mocracy. ,Mr. Ward. Price, however, ‘ sneers openly at the futilities of de mocracy and quotes Lloyd George: “the dictators act while the democrat ic leaders fumble"; again, “the differ ence between Germany and the demo- of Mussolini "fascism has abolished the game of parliamentary chess; it has simplified the taxation system and reduced the deficit to measurable proportions”. While Mr, Ward Price is glad that democratic Britain allows the Rotheremere press to speak its mind freely in praise of dictators, he appears to favour the subservience of the press to governmental policy in stead of the practice of democratic countries where a large part of the press has moved in the, opposite dir ection. Instead of putting national movements first, “its outlook on pub lic affairs is dominated by a set of vague, and visionary principles”. Mr. Aberhart might approve. Mr. Ward Price gives much more space to Hitler than to Mussolini and this is probably due to the larger amount of material available in Hit ler’s autobiography and also because his promary concern is with Anglo- German friendship which, he says, “is the key to the European situation”. No one objects to Anglo-German friendship if it is not based merely on the author’s fundamental abhor rence of communism, his contempt for democracy and the ideals of col lective security, his addiction to na tionalism, imperialism and Realpol itik, his incurably European mind which views the lesser breeds with contempt, and his opposition to the set of idealistic principles which, he designates as "vague and visionary”. Perhaps, his policy may win the day, but one wonders if it is worth the pos sible price of the disintegration of the British Empire and the collapse of all possibility of Anglo-American under standing. Britain may have to choose and Ratheremere et alii will do well to widen their vision beyond Europe to the New World and the Far East. The most important factor Jit the care of tuberculosis is rest. If a Patient has tuberculosis pf a joint:, the limb is put to rest by splinting or by some other means. The same method applies: - to tuberculosis of the lungs. In a certain' number of patients the diseased lung can he put at rest by artificial pneumo thorax or by other surgical operations, In most cases, however, the only way to rest the lungs is to rest the entire body. This general rest reduces all muscular action, thereby saving energy with which to fight the disease.Mental ease is also essential in the treatment of tuberculosis and neither freedom from worry nor proper rest can be had at home.Hospitals alone can provide the proper environment and scientific treatment necessary to effect a euro and the earlier such treatment is sought by those afflicted, the greater is their chance of recovery.The Muskoka and the Toronto Hospit als for Consumptives and the Queen Mary Hospital for Consumptive Children are equipped to serve those who are in need. The good they may do and the number they may serve is limited only by their means. This year these hospitals face an operating deficit of S123.000, which large sum must chiefly bo raised through voluntary contributions.
